I'm planning to spend about $2000 on a new PC, maybe a bit more or less. I'm interested in links to pre-selected parts since I believe building is usually cheaper than buying a pre-built system. Any advice or suggestions?

Definitely check out pcpartpicker.com! It's a great resource to find parts and compare prices. You'll end up spending hours browsing all the options! Take your time to research each component, as what you need can vary based on how you plan to use the PC.
Here's a solid dual monitor setup that keeps within your budget! I included all the essentials like monitors, keyboard, mouse, and Windows. Let me know if you'd like to adjust anything!
Here's another build I found that maximizes your $2000 budget. You could swap out for a 9900X3D or a 5070 Ti if you need more processing power. You might also save a bit by choosing a less expensive case.
I made a build on PCPartPicker that fits your budget. You can tweak it as needed. I recommend considering the 7800x3d processor for better performance. The cooler I suggested is budget-friendly and really effective. Case choice is personal, just pick one you like!
Building a PC can save you a ton of money—I've found it to be well over $1,000 cheaper than going with a pre-built system! It's definitely worth looking into.

Thanks for the setup! I'll check it out and see if it meets my needs.
